In this video, Pastor Jeff and Hong Teck share why children's ministry is so vital for the long-term health and growth of the church. To my fellow bros and sisters who are thinking of or are serving in children's ministry - this is a video that you MUST simply watch! It is EXTREMELY heart-stirring and inspiring.
Missions + children... gosh! it is a two-punch combo that has the power to both bring entire families to Christ AND to help firmly set the paths of the young ones onto Christ's way... to make ready a generation prepared for the Lord.
The urgency is even more important, because already, you can see the moral decay starting in our schools and the universities. I was reading in the Sunday Times last night, and was aghast to see the lewd orientation activities that were organized. Thank God that most people were turned off... but increasingly we see a new generation of students who simply shrug and say it's all right.
It may not be our problem in this generation... BUT do we realise that these students will go on to make a new culture that makes it VERY hard for people to come to know Christ? Even now, the weeds of post-modernism is laying waste to the soils of the young ones...
Missions is about the gospel transforming their culture, so that the culture will make it easier for people to come to know Christ.
